The perfect welcome,
with the paperwork already done.

Welcoo is a digital guidebook for short-term rentals, holiday homes and B&Bs that requires no download.

Guests send their documents and details in the days before arrival, check in on their own and find WiFi, house rules and your tips in one link, in their language. You sleep even when they arrive at 2am.

How it works

Ready in three steps. Then it works for you.

01

Create your property

Add your apartment, WiFi, house rules and your tips. Just once, no rush.

02

Share the link

Every property gets its own address, like villasusa.welcoo.app. Send it or put up a QR code at home.

03

Guests take it from there

They send their documents before arriving, check in on their own and find directions, WiFi and local tips in their language — without calling you.

Features

Everything your stay needs, in one place.

Pre check-in & self check-in

Say goodbye to blurry ID photos on WhatsApp

Days before arrival, guests scan their ID with their phone and the fields fill themselves in; then they answer your questions and pay the tourist tax. You approve it from the booking. On arrival, a guided path takes them all the way to the door, without needing you.

  • ID scan, fields filled in automatically
  • Data ready for Italy's Alloggiati Web and ISTAT, sent automatically
  • Guided self check-in, even late at night
Biometric verification

Know who walks in, even when you're not there

On arrival, guests frame their face with their phone: Welcoo compares it with the photo on their ID and checks that a real person is in front of the camera, not a picture. Only then does check-in continue. If recognition fails, the request comes to you and you approve or reject it from the panel.

  • Face matched to the ID, guest by guest
  • Liveness check: a real person, not a photo
  • If something's off, you decide remotely
WiFi & house info

The WiFi password and the rules, without ten messages

Network and password copy with one tap. Alongside them, guests find opening hours, house rules and directions to reach you — all written once, for good.

  • WiFi password, copyable with one tap
  • Clear house rules: hours, pets, waste
  • Directions to arrive, parking and access
Local guides

Your local tips, always within reach

The right restaurant, the hidden beach, what to see on foot. Write your guides once and your guests experience the area the way you do.

  • Tips on where to eat and what to see
  • Curated by you, shown with care
  • Fewer questions, happier guests
